The most delicious taco I’ve ever had was a freshly made, warm corn tortilla filled with spicy pork and pickled cabbage. The tanginess of the cabbage was perfectly balanced by the rich flavors of the meat, and a finely chopped cilantro garnish with a squeeze of lemon toned down the heat.

Because our love for tacos knows no bounds, I’ve put together a roundup of our favorite recipes. All you need is a pitcher of margarita or some micheladas. Enjoy!

taco pasta with cheese, romaine & black olivesPasta is tossed in a mild chili and beef sauce and plenty of shredded cheese. The dish bakes and bubbles its way to a golden crust. Like a true taco, we’ve chopped up crispy romaine and olives to serve on top.

bacon, egg and black bean tacos with tomatillo sauce & chile-lime jicamaThese breakfast-inspired tacos would be just as good for brunch as they would be on a weeknight. If you have a gas stove go ahead and heat the tortillas directly over that open flame; a little bit of char goes a long way to enhance their corn flavor. But don’t worry, they’ll be fine warmed in the oven, too. For a milder salsa, omit the jalapeño.
